“The thing about being this close to someone is that when you hurt them, you hurt yourself.” - Jenn Bennett, Chasing Lucky •——————————————————————————————• I flew through this gem the other night in one sitting. I love when a book is so good you just can’t put it down! That’s pretty much every Jenn Bennett book for me. I loved the setting of this story, small New England town, with our photographer mc who work in her family owned bookstore just being bonus points. While Alex, Approximately is still my reigning favorite, Chasing Lucky has claimed second place (sorry Serious Moonlight) and now I’m back to craving a new Jenn Bennett book fix.. •——————————————————————————————• #jennbennett #chasinglucky #bookspine #yalit #yabooks #yacontemporary #bookshelves #bookshelvesofinstagram #bookish #booklove #readingforfun #readingforpleasure #beautifulbooks #bookstagram #bookishlove #bookishlife #winterbookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CKevG2nAFQo/?igshid=rms6uyc6ouud

💬 Do you have a go-to genre or author for when you’re not feeling 100%? . When I’m feeling down or stressed with life, I always grab a feel-good adorable YA contemporary. The amazing @j3nn_benn is my favorite for this! I started reading #ChasingLucky yesterday and it definitely helped with my mood. I’m already in love with this story and so happy to have a new Jenn Bennett book to put a smile on my face. I can’t recommend her books enough! . Thank you to @simonteen for gifting me this copy! . . . s u m m a r y ⇣ Budding photographer Josie Saint-Martin has spent half her life with her single mother, moving from city to city. When they return to her historical New England hometown years later to run the family bookstore, Josie knows it’s not forever. Her dreams are on the opposite coast, and she has a plan to get there. What she doesn’t plan for is a run-in with the town bad boy, Lucky Karras. Outsider, rebel…and her former childhood best friend. Lucky makes it clear he wants nothing to do with the newly returned Josie. But everything changes after a disastrous pool party, and a poorly executed act of revenge lands Josie in some big-time trouble—with Lucky unexpectedly taking the blame. Determined to understand why Lucky was so quick to cover for her, Josie discovers that both of them have changed, and that the good boy she once knew now has a dark sense of humor and a smile that makes her heart race. And maybe, just maybe, he’s not quite the brooding bad boy everyone thinks he is… . . . h a s h t a g s ⇣ #jenniferbennett #yacontemporary #simonteen #realisticfiction #readersofinstagram #booksbooksbooks #cozyreading #cozyvibes #cozystyle #aquietstyle #slowdownwithstills #readingcommunity #bookstagram #calmcollected #reclaimthehappy #doortomywonderland #dreaminginpictures #morningslikethese #readingtime #readingnook #readmorebooks #readingcorner https://www.instagram.com/p/CH3HGAanKy7/?igshid=qh27tw66r8i7

💬 How do you feel about YA contemporary novels? Do you have any favorite authors? . I looovvvveee YA contemps. For a while they were the only genre I was reading.

I’m so excited to have this copy of CHASING LUCKY in my hands. Thank you to @simonteen for gifting me this little piece of heaven! . The release date for CHASING LUCKY has been pushed to November 10th, so that gives you plenty of time to get super excited and to preorder a copy! . . . ✩ SUMMARY ⇣ Budding photographer Josie Saint-Martin has spent half her life with her single mother, moving from city to city.

I got a book light today! I can see it clear for now. I just like sitting in the darkness after work, it is calming. Do you like book lights? I thought it would be better then buying a new e-reader which I still haven't ruled out. But trying not to sell and replace Kindle Oasis just yet with new device. *** #bookpost #booklight #ChasingLucky #jennbennett #yacontemporary #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CH1ZBVFgPGU/?igshid=hoih1t42m393

I call this I don't know what I want to read yet and I can't have my ereader at my work desk so ya fantasy and contemporary it is!! *** #bookstagram #physicalbooks #yacontemporary #yafantasy #ChasingLucky #cinderellaisdead https://www.instagram.com/p/CHtw-wmgLDQ/?igshid=9ihih1a4x6l7

My latest book haul and probably last one of the year for physical books. Physical books are great and I love them but wow! Five alone can add up in a month so I am going on a short book buying ban. I've gotten 50 or so since August so I'm good for now. Ebooks will be in my future again. I got some of these from my library on Overdrive too!! Happy book birthdays for two called Chasing Lucky and Love & Olives spotted here!! *** #inaholidaze #thetwelvedatesofchristmas #instantkarmabook #ChasingLucky #loveandolives @jennaevanswelch @j3nn_benn @christinalauren #bookstagram #physicalbooks #newbooks #bookhaul #prettybookspines https://www.instagram.com/p/CHbnSgQAimu/?igshid=19pmu5000ysmk
